I have just purchased 2 of these to try with the slingbox. If my wiring in the house is hooked up to work with these,my slingbox should work,or at least that's what netgear customer service told me. I will post an answer on here after I receive,and install these,and my slingbox.

Yes if the sling is getting signal from the same box. You change sling, sling changes cable box. Someone changes the box channel, you see what they see slung at you.

Well on my brand of TiVo , sling box is not an option when you have to choose the cable box brand. However, why not chech TiVo on line and see if their is a code you can enter under advanced setup.

Or, if you split the cable wire, you can plug in and use the slingbox's internal tuner independent of the tv. Of course, this will only work for analog cable or Local over the air broadcast stations.

bec. the slingbox is not wifi capable. you have to connect the RCA/Component cables from the cable box.

I would not buy this one. I replaced mine with a TP-Link router and it is a way better router and really easy to connect to. I left feed back on the one I bought to.Have a nice dayTed

I am using it for IPTV, It acts like an eithernet cable, it does nothing to the data i can see. I have IPTV and Interent going accross the link and they both work fine. Works like a bridging interface.

Slingbox not required. It works with Apple devices using the free app. And it now supports streaming away from home. Wifi is recommended to avoid high data usage. Shows can be downloaded for offline viewing as well.

I use mine with sling box all the time. Not sure what platform you want to use but, I would guess it should. Also it will depend on your connection. Jack

Hi Teresa. The short answer is yes. The Slingbox allows your computer to act as a tv and remote for the video signal you attach to it. So if your cable box, satellite box, or (as in my case) TiVo is attached to the Slingbox, your computer will control the signal just as if you were sitting in the room. So if I am watching the TiVo at home and my wife logs on to the Slingbox with her computer, it is as if two people with two remote controls are in the same room! She changes the channel and I change it back! The solution to this, if it's feasible for you, is to have a separate source for your Slingbox. If you get a separate cable box or satellite box and attach it to the Slingbox there will be no competition for its services. Hope this helps, WhiteHeat

The only way I know to do that would be to port your connection from a phone or tablet(with the slingbox software/app) on it, to the TV by a hardwire connection. I have done this before.

We use four. HD for a DVR. TV, computer, and one which connects to our modem to the AC house current. Having checked our internet connection speeds with a wireless laptop vs the desk computer the downloads and uploads are comparable. The Sling connection "finds" the Inet faster.

The slingbox needs to be hooked up to the TV directly. However, if you have a smartphone with a video out display adapter you could watch slingbox on another TV by streaming through your smartphone (assuming you have purchased the Slinbox app for your phone). As you mentioned, any remote computer with Internet access will also work. Hope that helps.

In general Slingbox is a peer to peer (point to point) connection such than only one connection is allowed. Sling does not stream to the internet, but streams only from point A to point B. So only one device at a time can use the Sling connection. That device may be in the next room or hundreds of miles away.

Just Internet access, wi-if or Ethernet. Then the apps available from sling box.com or just use the browser option on a laptop.

Have you had any problems at all connecting your Ps3 to the internet with this router. Do you connect using a Ethernet cable? Can you please give me some instructions on how to connect?
